WHAT IS CONNECTED TV | OTT ADVERTISING?

You might be looking at the performance of your television advertising and wondering why you are receiving less response than you used to. Especially when you read articles that television programming is being watched more than ever. Part of this reason is due to the online shift of television viewers. With streaming services, there is now a lot of competition for TV programming viewership as well as your advertising dollar.

Over-the-top (OTT) refers to video content services that stream content using the internet and forego the traditional method of streaming digital entertainment through a cable provider via a set-top box or a satellite to a TV.

Connected TV (CTV) is a television that is connected to the internet that can stream over-the-top (OTT), or not from a cable or satellite box, content. A traditional television set can easily become a CTV with devices like Apple TV or Roku. With a wide range of streaming service platforms, how do you effectively reach your target market?

The biggest difference is that OTT refers to the general industry and ads that are attached to video that is consumed online versus television advertising, which is considered solely offline, where ads are attached to video which is consumed through a television set via traditional network or traditional cable stations
